Chapter Twenty-Eight: Who Agrees and Who Opposes?
In the quiet flow of time.
Around the world, as the newly unearthed information about the [Sanqing Daozu] spreads, more and more people also know the honorific title of the so-called [Sanqing Daozu].
Although there is no more record of [Sanqing Dao Ancestor], but it can be named as Dao Ancestor, and it must be the top big man in ancient times.
As a result, more and more people began to recite the three honorific names.
"Praise Xuanqing Dao Ancestor!"
"Praise Fusheng Dao Ancestor!"
"Praise Xuanhuang for having no God, praise for Xuanhuang Daozu!"
The chanting accumulated into a lot, and gradually became vast, although most of them did not have a pious meaning, but still gathered a trace of the thoughts of sentient beings,
The thoughts of all living beings converged into a river, some of which continued to rush to Lu Xuan, and the other part of which continued to wash the [Sanqingguan] located in the downtown area.
This small courtyard, under the washing of the thoughts of all living beings, has become more and more simple, more and more deep, and more and more majestic
Later, it was hazy with a layer of mist composed of pure Taoist rhyme.
The fog is hazy and chaotic, and the Taoist courtyard is deep.
Everything is going on quietly.
The banquet venue set up by the provincial government was in the center of this residential area.
Home to high-ranking federal officials, the center of the complex is a sprawling building with only one floor, but lavishly decorated with a complete bronze gate and two stone lions in the doorway.
In those days, the price of pure bronze was much higher than that of superalloy.
At this time, the two bronze gates were opened, and Liu Zhong personally stood at the door, greeting one after another dignitaries who rushed to come.
"Director Chen is here? It's the beginning of the school year recently, and the Education Department is busy, right? ”
"Mayor Luo, long time no see, long time no see, the recent development of Dahu City is getting better and better, you are indispensable, you are indispensable!"
"Director Chu, come here, come here!"
In the greetings, although the dignitaries were puzzled and puzzled, they all walked into this huge banquet hall in groups of three or five.
Soon.
"Lord Wu." Looking at the three people walking side by side, he hurriedly made a salute and said respectfully: "There are two other gentlemen and young ladies, you can be counted as coming." ”
As he spoke, he greeted with a smile and continued:
"There are also a few officials who came with their sons and nephews today, and these two will not be bored if they go in. Lord Wu, please come here, I'll take you in! ”
The provincial housekeeper lowered his posture very low, and Wu Datong nodded slightly at him with the idea of reaching out and not hitting the smiling person.
Lu Xuan was looking curiously at this time, after all, this was the first time he had come to this kind of occasion, and the people who came and went were all gorgeously dressed and full of luxury, and the huge banquet hall also exuded the ultimate sense of luxury.
On the contrary, Xiao Yan didn't react, his face was still cold, and he seemed to be used to all this.
Soon, under the leadership of Liu Zhong, the three of them walked side by side into the bronze gate, and there were more than a dozen huge round tables in front of them, and the innermost was a high platform.
At this time, the round table was almost full of people, and each one of them was placed outside, and it was a powerful person.
From the head of a department to the mayor of a first-tier city, it covers almost all aspects of Langya Province.
In particular, the directors of the departments are all big figures who stand at the top of a specific provincial administrative body.
"The two of you are sitting here, both of them are the same age, and they can communicate with each other."
Liu Zhong arranged Lu Xuan and Yan Jiangxue to sit on the last seat near the bronze gate, and the round table was also as he said, and the people sitting around were all young men and women in their teens and twenties, who didn't look very old.
And Wu Datong was led to the first seat and the first round table under the high platform, which was far away from Lu Xuan.
After glancing at the general situation in the field, Lu Xuan thought about it while pulling Yan Jiangxue to sit down, and then glanced at the men and women sitting at the round table together.
There are a total of six or seven people, except for the little fat man next to Lu Xuan, they are very calm and reserved to each other, but this chattering little fat man is also the only acquaintance of Lu Xuan at this table, except for Xiao Yan.
Well, half an acquaintance, to be exact.
Chen Dao.
"This brother, I look a little faced, I know each other, my name is Chen Dao, my father is the director of the Langya Provincial Supervision Department, fortunately, fortunately!"
The little fat man was smiling all over his face, his two eyes narrowed into a slit, and his eyes were almost completely wrapped in fat, and Lu Xuan was a little helpless.
I had heard this talk once before in the old cemetery, when I was still carrying Wu Xiaoxu's face.
But he still bowed his head politely and said:
"Hello, my name is Lu Xuan, this is my friend, surnamed Yan."
"Luck, luck!" Chen Daoming is not very old, but he is extremely sophisticated in speaking, and he is good at human feelings, and in a few sentences, the original dead atmosphere on the table has been revitalized.
Seeing that the rest of them began to communicate with each other, and even began to talk loudly, he turned his head sideways again, with a smile on his face:
"Brother Lu, I see that you came with our Wu Zhenshou, Wu Zhenshou is in a high position, and he doesn't communicate much with the people below, no wonder I haven't seen you"
Obviously, he regarded Lu Xuan and Yan Jiangxue as Wu Datong's nephews.
After a pause, Chen Dao whispered again:
"I don't know anyone else, Brother Lu, let me introduce you in advance, the one with the ponytail is Luo Yuanyang, the daughter of Mayor Luo of Dahu City, that."
Lu Xuan didn't interrupt, and after listening patiently to him, he asked calmly:
"Brother Chen, do you know what this banquet is for? I heard that the top leaders of various departments in the province have arrived, and the mayors of more than a dozen first-tier cities have also arrived in person."
Chen Dao shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile:
"I don't know this, I followed my father to see the world, and by the way, I met a young Tianjiao like Brother Lu."
Lu Xuan smiled dumbly.
At this time, Chen Dao glanced at Yan Jiangxue, who had a cold face and had not spoken, and politely quickly withdrew his gaze, and asked without squinting:
"This Yan"
Before he finished speaking, suddenly.
"Ahem!"
On the high platform, there was a cough that resounded throughout the vast banquet hall.
Chen Dao stopped talking, and Lu Xuan and Yan Jiangxue also concentrated on each other, raising their heads and looking towards the high platform.
At this time, there were already two people sitting on the stage, one was an old man with white hair, his face was wrinkled, and his body was full of thick bookish aura, and the other was a middle-aged man with strong martial arts, full of iron-blooded killing aura.
Lu Xuan thought about it, and guessed the identities of the two, the old man who was full of books was probably the lord of the provincial capital, a Confucian cultivator, and the middle-aged man was naturally Wu Shangpin's father, the big town guard of Langya Province.
If I'm not mistaken, it seems to be called something. Wu Zhongshu?
Just as Lu Xuan's mind was turning, the voice of the provincial government lord on the high platform was subdued, and after first formulaically welcoming everyone's arrival,
Immediately, he got straight to the point and spoke bluntly.
"Actually, this time, in addition to communicating with each other, there is a very important thing for everyone to come here for the banquet."
Lu Xuan and Yan Jiangxue's expressions became solemn at the same time, and they listened attentively.
"Before I talk about it, let me introduce it."
As he spoke, a shorter middle-aged man took off into the air and landed steadily on the high platform.
The lord of the mansion said:
"This is Mr. Jun Sakata, from Sakata Heavy Industries, and is one of the directors of the board of directors of Sakata Heavy Industries."
When the words fell, countless people in the banquet hall looked at each other, Wu Datong, who was sitting in front, looked solemn, and so did Lu Xuan.
He glanced at the girl beside him with a cold face, and his mind moved slightly.
Sure enough, as Xiao Yan guessed, this so-called banquet was facilitated by a super consortium or Sakata Heavy Industries!
What do you want to do?
Thinking about it, Lu Xuan's eyes flashed with a dangerous brilliance.
Interesting.
On the high platform, under the gaze of countless top-level bigwigs in Langya Province, Jun Sakata took over the words of the provincial government lord and said quietly:
"Summoning you here this time is the meaning of our Sakata Heavy Industries, and next, what I say represents the will of Sakata Heavy Industries!"
When the words fell, the banquet hall was slightly chaotic, and all the dignitaries and dignitaries were whispering, realizing that something big would happen today,
And Chen Dao also came over at this time and whispered:
"It doesn't feel right, these super conglomerates are all high, how can they directly intervene in the internal affairs of a province and gather the people in charge of all departments."
After a pause, he continued:
"All the people in power in our provincial government are here, right?"
Lu Xuan didn't answer, just bowed slightly, staring at the direction of the high platform.
At this time, Jun Sakata on the stage continued:
"And the people are gathered here to discuss one thing."
He bit the word 'deliberation' very hard, and there was an unquestionable flavor in his words:
"That is, about the joint expulsion of Longque Technology from Langya Province."
When the words fell, the entire banquet hall was in an uproar!
Lu Xuan's brows furrowed suddenly, and he subconsciously glanced at the girl beside him, but Xiao Yan's face did not change, just listened quietly.
"What do you think?" He asked quietly.
Xiao Yan responded softly:
"Most likely, it is because the people's grievances have become more and more intense during this time, and they want to make a big incident and divert their attention, and at the same time."
After a pause, she calmly analyzed:
"At the same time, I also plan to completely tear my face with Dragon Bird Technology, and put the battle that was originally placed in the dark on the bright side, this has reached a very dangerous time, and if it goes further, it will be a life-and-death struggle between the high-level leaders of both sides."
The men and women at the same table all listened to this sentence into their ears, and they all cast their eyes in astonishment, and even Chen Dao was taken aback, and admiration appeared on his face.
They didn't expect that this girl with an extremely stunning face but extremely cold face could analyze so many things in just a moment, and it seemed to be right!
Several young men and women were nervous, realizing that they should not come to the banquet this time, and were forced to fall into the whirlpool of the struggle between two or even more super consortia!
At this time, Xiao Yan showed her calmness and opinions that belonged to the eldest princess of Dragon Bird Technology, and said concisely:
"If I'm not mistaken, they should also have reporters ready, just wait for all the senior officials present to confirm that they have jointly signed a letter to expel Dragon Bird Technology, and then immediately hold a press conference for all officials to appear."
As soon as the words fell, before Lu Xuan could respond, he was on the high platform.
Jun Sakata waited for everyone to discuss for a moment, and when his palm was pressed down, the power of the earth immortal came out, and the entire banquet hall was silent again.
"For now."
He said lightly:
"We have invited all media to be ready, and after you sign the joint letter, you will represent Langya Province to attend this press conference to fully announce the expulsion proposal to the public."
Chen Dao and the others looked sideways suddenly, and looked at Yan Jiangxue in shock and amazement, the latter did not move, just sat quietly, and did not even have the slightest wave in his expression.
After a moment, Chen Dao swallowed his saliva and pulled the corner of Lu Xuan's clothes:
"Brother Lu, the one next to you. Cow, real cow! ”
After a pause, sorrow appeared on his face:
"I knew I wouldn't be coming. Brother Lu, do you think we can still slip away now? Anyway, we're not the key players in this banquet, we're just here to make soy sauce."
Lu Xuan smiled lightly, meaningful:
"Before the banquet is over, the ones above shouldn't let anyone go."
"Hey." Chen Dao sighed again and muttered in a low voice, "Brother Lu, how can you say that the mansion master and the big town guard would agree to such a thing?" It can't be coerced, right? ”
"Who knows?" Lu Xuan lowered his eyelids, and there was no change in expression on his face.
Chen Dao was about to say something when suddenly.
"And."
On the high platform, Jun Sakata continued to say lightly:
"At this moment, among the thirty-three provinces of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the twenty-eight provincial capitals are all having a banquet that is as unique as this place, I think everyone should understand what I mean, understand the meaning of Sakata Heavy Industries."
After a pause, he asked:
"Is there anyone who doesn't plan to participate in this joint expulsion of Longque Technology from Langya Province?"
The banquet hall was silent, and in the middle of the night, a celestial stood up and made a respectful salute:
"The lord of the house, the big town guard, and this Mr. Jun Sakata, I won't participate, please"
The voice fell.
'Boom! ’
Junichi Sakata pointed down, and half of the celestial's body exploded, and the whole person collapsed on the ground, dying!
The banquet hall fell silent.
"Now, is there anyone else planning to quit?"
Jun Sakata looked around domineeringly, waited for a moment, and no one dared to answer.
A satisfied smile appeared on his face, his hands overlapped, and he said lightly:
"In that case, then the discussion and signing of the expulsion of Dragon Bird Technology will officially begin, well, let me ask one last time, who agrees with this matter and who opposes it?"
There was silence all around.
The smile on Jun Sakata's face was even more satisfied, and he was about to continue to say something.
"I'm against it."
A calm voice rang out.
The trembling dignitaries in the banquet hall 'hula' looked sideways together, looking at the last seat like fools,
Chen Dao's face was full of confusion, and he turned his head stiffly to the side and looked at the calm looking Brother Lu beside him.
"You're crazy!" He tugged at the corner of the young man's clothes beside him, however, the next moment.
Chen Dao saw this Brother Lu Shi Ran stand up, his eyes were clear, he was not arrogant, he was not impatient, he was not frightened, he just repeated it very peacefully.
"I am against this matter, so who is in favor of and who is against my opposition?"
